Small note from me: As we have recently had an update every month, the window to action QoLs and client update bug fixes from a current update, is really tiny or sometimes is missed before that next update already needs to be submitted.
This is why currently you will see some things be implemented in the 2nd or 3rd next update
Also, why Sokun & I included an update cadence question in the Community Survey!

We appreciate having constant updates to the game. You guys want to make the game more enjoyable for newer players, and that’s what has been the focus for quite some time. Little by little, things will get better (as long as pesky bugs don’t keep bothering us).
And thank you for removing guild war permissions from rank 3 members. That caused a lot of chaos when we had to demote everyone because too many people kept changing things and being confused.
After all the data from the community survey is looked at, I am sure that you guys will have a clear direction on what to focus on for future updates. I am trying not to comment on the forums as much because the wheels already seem to be in motion without my input anymore.
Fun fact: I helped Team Cherry with testing for bugs and performance about a year ago for Silksong and am glad that their dream will finally be realized soon. Their studio is in Melbourne too, so something right must be going on down under! Maybe it’s the kangaroos…

As a veteran player, I kind of wish we were allowed to repeat these early-game reworks just to see firsthand what they are even like now. Sure, the in-game rewards for new players are basically moot to older players, but still.

Any reason the patch notes can’t contain expected release date any more, Jeto? Seems bad to have that info in another thread but not this one.

Personally, I’d be happy to have less frequent content drops in exchange for more QoL updates. I think it would make the game better overall. Thanks for looking into this option as a possibility.

A little less than a GB on iOS. Wonder what the difference is.
